10OrganisationalReportPresidentReport from the PresidentI am pleased to present the 67th Annual Report of NovitaChildren’s Services for the year ending 30 June 2006.I am proud to be associated with Novita, an organisationthat continues to lead the way in the provision of servicesto children with disabilities in South Australia and beyond.Novita’s strength continues to be drawn from the dedicatedand committed staff, all of whom strive to provide a servicethat reflects the needs of our children and their families.There is no doubt that service provision to a child with adisability and their families has become more complex. In asociety where there is ever increasing competition for limitedfunds, the need to advocate for our clients and their familieshas never been more important. As I reflect on the past year,it becomes clear that the most significant event has been thedevelopment of Novita’s new Strategic Plan, which will guidethe organisation for the next five years.The Strategic Plan has resulted from extensive consultationand input by a wide range of staff and stakeholders ofthe organisation. It is not the voice of one, but of many.
